I was raised to be a weird sort of fair-weather literalist. As in my dad said things like “Maybe fossils are just decoration God put there, and maybe the world is only about 10,000 years old. Maybe.”
I prefer to think of it as though God created the universe such that no matter how much we learn about our planet or our universe, there’s always much much more that we then realize that we still don’t know yet.
Exactly right! And the things we still don’t know yet include if God definitely exists or definitely does not exist. 😃
